Just as he was feeling triumphant, the two swords suddenly exploded. The energy unleashed by the explosion was like a raging storm, instantly engulfing Zhou Jiu.

"Qiu Mei, now's the time!"

Yu Qiu had already prepared the jade talisman in his hand. With the activation of his magic power, the jade talisman shone brightly, forming a spatial black hole in the void.

This is a teleportation array that spans galaxies. If the two of them go in, even if they can't get rid of this old monster in front of them, they can at least make some noise to attract the people from the Cloud Palace to come and rescue them.

This place is too remote, almost outside the Taiyi Starfield. Both of them are at the Human Immortal Realm, and without the help of a teleportation array or a top-tier flying magic weapon, they wouldn't see a living person for hundreds of years.

But the moment they stepped into the black hole, a red light flashed, and the teleportation black hole in front of them shattered instantly.

They turned to look and saw Zhou Jiu staring at them with a gloomy expression. The precious sword that Yu Min had personally forged for them had self-destructed at close range, yet Zhou Jiu was completely unharmed!

Moreover, his clothes were brand new, as if the explosion just now was nothing more than a tickle to him!

As Zhou Jiu waved his hand, the surrounding void flashed, and the two of them felt a sudden increase in pressure, as if they were walking in water.

"You two little brats dare to play tricks on me? I've sealed off this entire space, let's see where you can run to now!"

Seeing this, Li Jianming no longer hesitated. His expression tightened, and he made hand seals. Suddenly, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and his magical power suddenly doubled, clearly indicating that he had used a secret technique!

"Qiu Mei, hold on tight to me!"

Li Jianming moved like lightning, his speed far exceeding that of a cultivator in the Human Immortal Realm. He vanished from his spot in an instant, causing a tremor in the space!

"Trying to run? Come back here!"

Zhou Jiu reached out with one hand, his huge, illusory hand encompassing the universe, and instantly appeared beneath Li Jianming, reaching out to grab them.

Knowing things were going badly, Li Jianming didn't hesitate any longer and crushed the jade pendant given to him by his mother-in-law, Yu Min.

Buzz!

A transparent light shield appeared instantly, protecting the two inside. The large hand grabbed and struck the light shield, producing a piercing sound like metal clashing against metal, and spatial cracks were visible everywhere!

"What?! A protective magic treasure from the Taiyi Golden Immortal realm?"

Yu Qiu looked at her husband with worry, seeing his figure constantly spitting blood. She bit her lip, knowing that now was the time to gamble with her life. Without hesitation, she also used a secret technique to continuously pour her magic power into Li Jianming's body.

"Qiu Mei, you!"

"No need for words, Ming-ge, fly at full speed, we'll live and die together!"

Li Jianming nodded heavily: "To live and die together!"

They knew that without the help of magical artifacts, even if they were allowed to fly for a year, they would not be able to escape Zhou Jiu's capture. The protective shield given by Yu Min would only last for a little over a month before dissipating. Therefore, they had little hope of escaping.

Their minds raced, and with no other option, they were focused solely on escaping. Suddenly, a flash of red light appeared ahead, and Zhou Jiu materialized directly in front of them.

"I didn't expect you to have the inheritance of the Taiyi Golden Immortal, but unfortunately, I don't even take the Taiyi Golden Immortal seriously!"

Zhou Jiu spoke arrogantly, pointing out a red line that streaked across the void, accompanied by a sound of space tearing, directly impacting the protective shields of Li Jianming and his companion.

laugh!

The two energies intertwined once more, but this time the transparent shield's energy did not prevail. To their astonishment, it dissipated into specks of light and vanished into the void.

"How...how is this possible!"

"My mother's protective shield... is broken!"

Li Jianming exclaimed in disbelief, "You're a Great Immortal?!"

Zhou Jiu seemed to enjoy their expressions and chuckled wickedly, "What? Haven't you ever seen a Grand Luo Golden Immortal before? That beauty, you just mentioned your mother's protective shield? Did your mother make that shield?"

Yu Qiu knew that he and his mother were doomed to die when facing a powerful being at the Great Luo Realm. Even if his mother came, it would be useless. Although he couldn't win and didn't want to resist, he was good at talking.

"You old bastard, why should I tell you? I feel like throwing up just looking at you. You'd better not go out and scare people."

Zhou Jiu chuckled and said, "I like your attitude. Later, I'll take care of your lover first, then show you how powerful I am. I'll also ask where your mother is and let her see how happy her daughter is!"

Yu Qiu blushed deeply at his words, and with a flick of his wrist, a celestial sword appeared in his hand.

I would rather die than let you defile me!

As he spoke, he placed the sword against his own neck.

Li Jianming's face showed grief. He snatched the immortal sword, pointed it at Zhou Jiu, and said, "We are husband and wife, destined to live and die together, but we will die on the battlefield. Bring it on!"

Zhou Jiu scoffed, "Alright, I'm coming right now."

After saying that, he walked step by step toward Li Jianming, his eyes filled with amusement, his steps unhurried, his hands behind his back.

Although they did not use any magic, the powerful sense of oppression already made the two of them sweat profusely.

Zhou Jiu enjoys the fear that others feel before they die, wanting them to experience the approach of death!

Some people are not afraid of death, but they are afraid of knowing the outcome of death. Time will make their fear grow and eventually lead to their collapse!

As time passed, Li Jianming watched helplessly as Zhou Jiu walked up to him, his hand holding the sword trembling uncontrollably.

"What, you're afraid to draw your sword? Come on, your sword is right in front of my neck, do you dare to draw it?"

After saying that, he actually stretched his neck to the tip of the sword, looked at Li Jianming with amusement, and then teased, "You are so worthless, what right do you have to possess such a beauty? Why don't you give her to me, and I'll spare your life?"

Li Jianming suddenly smiled and said, "Senior, is what you say true?"

His words startled the two people in front of and behind him. Zhou Jiu was overjoyed. He felt as if he had won the final victory by manipulating people's hearts. Killing people was a small matter. Killing people and destroying their spirits was the result he wanted!

Yu Qiu looked at the man in front of her in disbelief, as if she couldn't believe those words had come from him.

Zhou Jiu chuckled and said, "When..."

laugh!

A beam of light shot from Li Jianming's sword. This strike was faster than any of his previous moves, and he seemed oblivious to the passage of time. The immortal sword had already pierced Zhou Jiu's neck!

Zhou Jiu's words were abruptly cut off. When he came to his senses, the immortal sword was already stuck in his neck, and he was instantly filled with rage.

For a Great Luo Golden Immortal, this injury was nothing. He gripped the sword with one hand, exerted force, and shattered the immortal sword. Then, he grabbed Li Jianming's neck with the other hand and said coldly.

"How dare you! I never thought I'd be tricked by a mere cultivator from a human immortal realm! I'll kill you!"

His right fist shot out suddenly, piercing straight through her chest.

"Pfft!" Li Jianming couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood.

"My hand is holding your heart, let me see what color your heart is?"

Yu Qiu finally came to her senses and, seeing Li Jianming's miserable state, shouted, "No!"
